Lonely and Isolated

I recently got back to college for second semester and am feeling terribly isolated and alone. I have a few friends that I signed a lease to live with next year but as I’ve gotten to know them I am not a fan of some of their attitudes and personalities and habits. I’m worried that this whole second semester and all of next year will be spent feeling lonely and isolated. My roommate just won’t talk to me even though I’ve made an effort to befriend her. I also have joined clubs in hopes of making new friends but it is not working out how I would like it to. I have made no new friends unfornautely. Also, my one club is causing me major stress because it is the school newspaper and my social anxiety plus general school stress are causing that club to be not enjoyable. I know I have new classes this semester but I am unsure how to make new friends because most people took classes with their friends and I am in a new major so I don’t even have any acquaintances. My parents sent me down with my car this semester in hopes that it would make me happier because I would maybe be able to go do things even if it is just going to get groceries. I’m so confused and sad and lonely. Any advice??
